Born on June 22, 1994, in Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, Ryan Williams, known as ‘R-Willy’, developed an early interest in extreme sports. After watching the 2001 X Games documentary ‘Ultimate X’ at age 7, he began rollerblading. His engagement with scootering started in 2006 at age 12 at his local skatepark in Caloundra, followed by BMX at age 15. This early exposure to various action sports laid the foundation for his professional career. By 2010, Williams had become associated with Madd Gear, a partnership that continued until 2018.
In 2012, at the age of 17 and still in his final year of secondary school, a viral video of his scooter tricks led to him joining the Nitro Circus team, where he continues to perform. His career has been marked by numerous achievements in competitive events, earning 9 gold medals across both scooter and BMX events at the Nitro World Games and X Games, in addition to two silver medals. Notable achievements include multiple X Games BMX Big Air gold medals in 2018 (Sydney), 2019 (Shanghai and Minneapolis), and 2022 (Aspen), as well as a BMX Park Best Trick gold in 2023 (Chiba). In scooter events at the Nitro World Games, he secured gold medals in Scooter Best Trick in 2017 (Salt Lake City) and 2018 (Paris).
Williams is recognized for pioneering over a dozen ‘world’s first’ tricks on both BMX and scooter platforms. These innovations include the ‘Scooter Loop’ (2012), ‘Free Willy’ (2014), and a ‘1440˚’ rotation on BMX (2015). In 2019, he acquired 40 acres of land in Eudlo, near the Sunshine Coast, to develop ‘R-Willy Land’, an action sports facility featuring a 13-foot mega ramp used for training and hosting events, such as the scooter rider qualifications for the Nitro World Games 2022. This facility, managed by his father, represents a significant investment in the future of action sports development in Australia.
